So I am back from NY and this morning I get a call from someone who saw me at my tractor show and wanted to know if I could use a couple free attachments. So I go over thinking a snowblade or an extra deck and he has a weedcutter, a 38" revitalizer, a dethatcher, extra wheels/tires and a sort of home made carry all box made from a sunrunner! Completely free! I finally have a score!!

Holy Mackarel! You sure did score! What does a revitalizer do? is it like a de-thatcher?
Nice score Jon! |

OMG! Great score! If you have no plans for the weedcutter, let me know! The last one slipped away and I just cannot find one to save me. I am only a little over an hour away! |

Does that bumper tube on the front of the weedcutter protrude as far as the blades? I have killed a few small pines when trying to clear around them, I can see that tube preventing that accidental nicking from happening. |

I believe that is what the tube is for, to protect the blades. I like the idea. The carry all has to be mounted to the back of the tractor, so I don't think he could have used it for the bagger. He also said he had wood sides on it so I think he used it to haul stuff around with. I like it, this way I can use this one and not damage the original carry all box I have... |

That would make any one of us the most spectacular day! I don't even own a tractor the stuff would fit on, but if given a haul like that....I'd be buying one or two! |

I'd like to see how well that EZ Rake works too...I think Freddie has one with it's own engine. |

Wow! Nice haul, another good thing to come out of the wet show you had. To find those attachments is tough enough, but the PRICE! |
